Our story began as friends
sharing goals for our futures
talking, listening and laughing
like brothers and sisters
Our time spent together
is priceless beyond words
moments we’ve cherished
letting down our guards
Then a revelation came
after seeing him last night
I saw the way he looked at me
and my heart took flight
Without any fair warning
something changed deep inside
I saw him in every tomorrow
until the end of time
Never do I want
our friendship to sever
Never have I felt
so much pressure
My thoughts are confused
My body, perplexed
What shall I do?
What happens next?

Thank you, Silently! 🙂
This was great! If I changed the ‘him’ to ‘her’ I believe we would be speaking of Mom and I. Luv ya, Dad

Thanks, Naima, and we never know how these friendships will turn out… 🙂
very well expressed how one might have to choose between friendship and love..Lauren. That is always a tricky situation for the coin might fall either way.
Ciao, Francina xox
I know, it can get tricky, can’t it? Thanks so much, Francina! Cheers and Hugs to you! xo
Friendship is the foundation and the seal by which a strong relationship is romantically invested….my soul mate is my bestie to this day….loved this poem!

I’m so glad you can relate, Celeste, and I’m happy for you, as I can say the same about my hubby and I! Thanks so much for your comment so well said, too! Hugs!
This is so very much the way I felt during the time the friendship was turning into romance with my hubbie years ago! Wonderful poem. Very wonderful to celebrate a true love that starts very soundly (and very correctly, in my opinion) as a true friendship!
I’m so happy that you and your hubby started out as friends, too, Rose, and then blossomed into romance! Thank you! xo
